Deist:
de·ism [dï¼ Ã¬zzÉm]
noun
rational belief in God: a belief in God based on reason rather than revelation and involving the view that God has set the universe in motion but does not interfere with how it runs.
Deism was especially influential in the 17th and 18th centuries.

it depends on whether you believe in miracles, special creation, and other godly interventions or not.
Deism is probably what you're looking for. Unitarian Universalism is a "religion" that doesn't have any real required beliefs, God or good is something to strive for, the rest is subjective kind of stuff.

Theism is believing in personal humanoid or physical Gods). If you imagine it as able to move around from place to place you are a theist.
If you imagine God as "Group Mind(stoicism)," "The Way(daoism)" or any other non local universal force you are Deist.
Wisdom in Faith's answer is totally correct.

Mmm, I'm not a philosopher, but the term I use is "irreligious theist".

Deism is an example of this type of belief, but I don't know if it can be used as the generic term.

Agnostic.
An agnostic does not deny the existence of God and heaven but holds that one cannot know for certain whether or not they exist.
